Judy's Decadent Crab Quiche 🦀🥧

This delightful crab quiche is a savory treat that's sure to impress your guests at brunch or any special gathering! With a creamy filling and the delicious flavors of crab and broccoli, this quiche is hearty and satisfying. Serve it warm for a comforting meal, or enjoy it cold for a refreshing snack!

Ingredients

For the filling

3 large eggs 🥚
1 cup heavy cream 🥛
10 oz broccoli, cooked until tender and chopped 🌿
½ lb fresh or canned crabmeat, drained and flaked 🦀
4 oz grated Swiss cheese 🧀
3 tablespoons finely chopped onion 🧅

For the crust

1 deep dish pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, blend the eggs and heavy cream until well combined. Set aside.

🔪 For a smooth texture, consider whisking vigorously or using a hand mixer.

In a deep dish pie plate, evenly distribute the cooked broccoli, flaked crabmeat, grated Swiss cheese, and chopped onion.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the filling, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
Bake in your preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the quiche is puffed and lightly golden on top.

⏲️ Keep an eye on it towards the end — ovens can vary, and you don't want it to overbake. A slight jiggle in the center is okay; it will set as it cools.

Once baked, let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Tips & Tricks

🌿 You can substitute the broccoli with your favorite vegetables like spinach, asparagus, or bell peppers for a twist on this classic recipe.

🦀 If you're using canned crab, make sure to choose a high-quality brand to enhance the dish's flavor.

Serving Suggestions

Serve your crab quiche with a light salad or a side of fresh fruit for brunch.
Pair it with a chilled glass of white wine or sparkling water for an elegant touch. 🥂

Variations

Crustless: For a low-carb version, omit the pie crust and bake in a greased pie dish. This is a fantastic option if you're looking to reduce carbs without sacrificing flavor!
Spicy Twist: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce into the egg mixture for a bit of heat. 🌶️
Herb Infusion: Mix in your favorite fresh herbs like dill or chives for added freshness and flavor. ✨

Enjoy making this delicious crab quiche, and don't be surprised if it becomes a regular favorite at your table!
